CBK does not prepare well for opening games. Prove me wrong.

No one is changing any sort of rankings based on “bad looks” in regards to scheduling.

Should have cancelled the game.



Like I said the only people who will know are message board posters.


We have had people back out, people go behind our backs and schedule a week 0 game and on and on.



Nobody cares.

Way to bury the lead that the #1 pick is the LSU QB


Im not being negative but if the offensive line doesn't improve dramatically I just don't see how he stays healthy or even shows that he's nfl caliber with his particular skill set.

I will have Les Miles’esque dislike for Brian Kelly if he losses another 1st game.


We can only hope that Kelly achieves the level of success that Les did at LSU. Kelly has his work cut out for him to get there.

Two evenly matched squads at Clemson. If we don’t get a couple of breaks it’s provably a loss.

Expecting Kelly to have an LSU team ready to play at a level needed to win that game is funny to me.

So... everyone is bitching about us scheduling Clemson, and nobody's addressing the fact that he says they have SIX first round picks? Four in the top 10?

I mean, that would tie for most alltime. I think Clemson is good, but this would suggest they're a pretty solid favorite to win it all.

Yea, it’s obviously going to be a hard game and away... But they all started on a 9-3 team last season that were fortunate to win against smu (who got killed by Penn state)

No one could predict Covid was going to happen in 2016 when the game was scheduled against Texas. Who cares if LSU is away team first?

When this game was scheduled, the CFP was 4 teams. Cancel the game and LSU will get blasted by every national media outlet saying LSU is scared to play against good teams.

Clemson got their arse handed to them 34-3 and everyone thought Dabo would be gone by end of the season bc "Clemson was done". They won the ACC and made it to CFP. Let's see what happens in 4 months and stop being afraid.

LSU football is already 0-1. I’ll tune in on week 2. Tired of getting the fam together for a big night of food and football only to see us crap the bed again for the 5th or 6th year in a row.

The Browns drafted two QB’s last week and he thinks they’re gonna spend a high draft choice on another QB?

Absolutely idiotic to schedule this game in this era.


If we are a team capable of winning a national title then it shouldn't matter who we play. Don't see Texas/Ohio St fans bitching about their early season matchup. Only those expecting help to even reach the playoff care about losing 1 early season game.

No they wouldn’t and even if they did it wouldn’t matter.



All that matters is 10-2 or better.



By playing the game we are significantly reducing our chances of being. 10-2

More difficult games makes it harder to be 10-2 or better.


That’s an inarguable statement.


There is zero reason to make it any harder than it has to be

First off texas has the easiest SEC schedule in the conference.

Second have you been frequenting their message boards?


Otherwise you would have zero idea





This isn’t a controversial issue either.


Kirby was complaining about unbalanced SEC schedules which are mandatory.


Much less VOLUNTARILY playing a playoff game in week 1



It’s idiotic
